My bone marrow biopsy came back totally normal and I have no MDS. The chromosome report is not in yet but it was normal to begin with and I am still waiting on the % of donor cells report. I am getting my regular flu shot tomorrow with my local hematologist. we are not sure how much good it will do me but my whites are 7.7 and neuts 6 even with all the immune suppressants
so I think my immune system just might a fighting machine! they cut the prednisone down to 30 mgs now from 100, I am very Happy!!!!
